| Friends and Colleagues,
As we approach the end of the year and reflect on our challenges and successes, I want to take a moment to express my deep appreciation to all the members of our research community for being such wonderful colleagues and creating a vibrant and positive environment for training and discovery. I am thankful each day that I have the privilege of working with world-class faculty, students, postdoctoral fellows, staff, and alumni that comprise the community of the Division of Molecular Pathogenesis. Your commitment to excellence, engagement with our trainees, relentless curiosity, and drive for basic science research have inspired me and are what make the Division of Molecular Pathogenesis and the Department of Pathology, Microbiology, and Immunology at VUMC, such a special place.
We have a very exciting 2020 ahead of us. Research in the Division continues to expand at an impressive rate, and we had another record year in grant expenditures, and this record-setting pace will continue in 2020. Drs. Janet Markle and Wenhan Zhu will be launching laboratories this year, adding to the incredibly successful junior faculty in our Division. The first phase of the renovated 5th floor laboratories is set to open in the spring, and I expect that planning for subsequent phases will soon follow. Our graduate programs continue to grow and the combined programs now represent the largest graduate biomedical training programs at Vanderbilt. Of course, all of this would not be possible without the incredible support provided by our outstanding administrative team. The future is bright for MP!
Thank you to everyone for being part of this fantastic Division. On behalf of myself, my family, and my lab, Happy New Year!
Eric
